More skill is required for the operation of the 1911.

More skill is required to carry a glock safely.

Ouch!

Knew a sub zero-IQ guy who carried a G19 w/o a holster. He pulled it out one day and pop it went into the pavement. “Safety-triggers” indeed.

Hi TG...

I don’t have any Glock tools, I started with the Sig platform and have stuck with it.

I am curious as I have read stories about Glock safety etc. mostly anecdotes but no real facts.

What do you think are the key items to be aware of with Glocks? I’m contemplating a G17 or G19, ya know, one of the CLASSIC Glocks to add to the collection...

Best,

G

Maybe if you are talking about the skill needed to make it go bang 'cuz you do have to flick down the thumb safety before pulling the trigger on the 1911. But if you are talking about the skill needed to hit what you are aiming at then the 1911 is a much easier weapon to use. A single action trigger is a requirement on any hand gun I carry.

Keeping a firearm in a holster that covers the trigger and trigger guard, and keeping your booger hook off the bang switch unless you intend to fire, requires skill?

Tell me more.
